Can any of ya'll out there on the west coast give me any info of this reel. Lately I've been thinking about getting one. I've always heard of Pro Gears reputation on their star drag reels and was curious about their lever drag. Line capacity, drag rating and any idea on parts avalibility sure would help.

He is the owner and maker of Pro Gear Reels. He will also warranty the reel and has replacement parts.
Here are some specs:
Specs:
Machined Aluminum One piece frame
7 SS ball bearings
4.9:1 gearing
Stainless steel main & pinion gear
25 ounces
325 yds 30# line capacity.
I haven't seen one yet, but knowing Pro Gear, they gotta be good.
Thanks Bryan, line capacity sounds just right I think. I guess I need to get in touch with him and see how hard it is to get parts.
Hey Roger,
I found Pics here http://www.fishingouting.com/forums/f70/pro-gear-oceanus-30-a-1967/index2.html. Posting indicated that you will be able to upgrade to a double drag system as a DIY kit because Accurate has a patend on the dual drag design.

Thanks Bryan
